Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Blue Ridge Manor

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 6.5/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Dauphin County average of 5.9 and in line with the Pennsylvania statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 19th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 51 eviction filings here over 6 tracked years, with about 3.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 4.6% of renter households in 2005.
